One element that has many on the left worried is Trump's vow to reverse President Joe Biden's green energy initiatives. Primarily, this stated directive will target electric vehicles. Instead, under a second Trump administration, combustion-powered vehicles may dominate the streets.

That's because the company is buying three regulated natural gas utilities from Dominion En ...
